Polymorphonuclear leukocytes PMNL

Neutrophil A phagocytic leukocyte. Known also as Polymorphonuclear leukocyte, PMNL... [Pg.909]

All inhaled particles evoke an inflammatory response in the lung. In most reported studies the initial inflammatory cells are polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL), and these are followed by an influx of alveolar macrophages (1,41,49,64-68,78,89). In a few studies (55,70) only a macrophage response has been seen, at least when considering cells accumulating at the first alveolar duct bifurcations, the major site of particle impaction in these specific experiments. As a rule, and provided the point of overload (see following) is not reached, there is a reasonably good correlation between the number of particles deposited and... [Pg.407]
